"A nice, normal life. Is that too much to ask? For Riley Thorn it is. Divorced. Broke. Living with a pack of elderly roommates. And those hallucinations she''s diligently ignoring? Her tarot card-dealing mom is convinced they''re clairvoyant visions. Just when things can''t get worse, a so-hot-it-should-be-illegal private investigator shows up on her doorstep looking for a neighbor...who turns up murdered. Nick Santiago doesn''t play well with others. Unless the "others" are of the female persuasion. Wink. He''s a rebel, a black sheep, a man who prefers a buffet of options to being stuck with the same entrée every night, if you catch his drift. When the pretty, possibly psychic Riley lands at the top of the list of suspects, Nick volunteers to find out whodunit. Only because he likes solving mysteries not because he wants to flex his heroic muscles for the damsel in distress. All they have to do is figure out who pulled the trigger, keep the by-the-book detective with a grudge at bay, and deal with a stranger claiming he was sent to help Riley hone her psychic gifts. All before the killer discovers she''s a loose end that requires snipping"--

Von der Autorin des Weltbestsellers "Things we never got over" "Er ist der Typ Mann, der dich auf einer Party dazu überredet, dein Höschen in der Garderobe abzulegen, der Orgasmen wie Minzdrops nach dem Essen verteilt und dich dann nie wieder anruft."

And when Lucian learns the hard way that leaving Sloane is impossible, he vows to do everything he can to keep her safe. Whatever the cost . . .

From Sunday Times and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Things We Never Got Over Dominic: I got her fired. Okay, so I''d had a bad day, but there''s nothing innocent about Ally Morales. Maybe her colourful, annoying, inexplicably alluring personality brightens up the magazine''s offices that have felt like a prison for the past year. Maybe I like that she argues with me in front of the editorial staff. And maybe my after-hours fantasies are haunted by her brown eyes and sharp tongue. She''s working herself to death at half a dozen dead-end jobs for some secret reason. And I''m going to fix it all. Don''t accuse me of caring. She''s nothing more than a puzzle to be solved. If I can get her to quit, I can finally peel away all those layers. Then I can go back to salvaging the family name and forget all about the dancing, beer-slinging brunette. Ally: Ha. Hold my beer, Grumpy Grump Face.

Bootleg Springs - die erfolgreiche Small Town-Reihe der Bestsellerautorinnen Claire Kingsley und Lucy Score! Scarlett, die von ihren drei Brüdern aufgezogen wurde, hat eine harte Zeit hinter sich. Doch niemals lässt sie sich unterkriegen. Wie ein Wirbelwind sorgt sie überall, wo sie auftaucht, für Unruhe und reißt mit ihrem offenen Wesen alle mit. Ihre Lieblingsbeschäftigungen? Jeden Mann gnadenlos unter den Tisch zu trinken und Two-Step zu tanzen. Romantik oder gar tiefe Gefühle haben in ihrem Leben keinen Platz. Und der sexy Typ, der nebenan eingezogen ist? Da ist ihr Interesse rein nachbarschaftlich. Was auch sonst? Devlin ist am Tiefpunkt seines Lebens angelangt: Ehe, politische Karriere und alle anderen Zukunftspläne sind mit einem Mal zerstört. Nun ist er im Haus seiner Großmutter in Bootleg Springs gestrandet, diesem winzigen Ort in West Virginia, der nur für zwei Dinge berühmt ist: schwarzgebranntem Schnaps und dem ungeklärten Fall eines verschwundenen Teenagers. Doch Devlin interessiert das alles nicht, denn er ist damit beschäftigt sich selbst leid zu tun. Leider versteht das seine neue Nachbarin nicht, die ihn ständig nervt und ihn aus der Reserve locken will. Als sie dann seine Hilfe benötigt, muss sich Devlin entscheiden: bleibt er zurückgezogen in seinem Schneckenhaus oder hilft er dieser Frau, die ihm merkwürdigerweise einfach nicht mehr aus dem Kopf geht?

Le phénomène TikTok de l''année #thingswenevergotoveru200b #lucyscoreu200b La new romance " nouvelle génération ". Alors que Naomi plante son fiancé devant l''autel, sa jumelle Tina l''appelle à la rescousse à Knockemout, une petite ville où les querelles se terminent soit en bagarres, soit en beuveries. Malheureusement, Tina n''a pas changé : sitôt sa soeur retrouvée, elle disparaît avec la voiture de Naomi, abandonnant au passage sa fille de onze ans. Knox, bienfaiteur de la ville et bad boy à ses heures perdues, ne fait pas dans les relations compliquées, encore moins avec une mariée en fuite. Mais puisque la vie de Naomi vient d''exploser sous ses yeux, la moindre des choses est de lui venir en aide. Il pourra ensuite retourner à son tranquille quotidien. Enfin, ça, c''était le plan initial, car il y a peu de chances que l''histoire en reste là...

Knox isn''t interested in any kind of drama, even if it involves a lost runaway bride. It wasn''t just the wedding that Naomi wanted to avoid. She was on her way to Knockemout, Virginia, to save her long-lost brother in a town where people settled their differences the old-fashioned way: with fists and beer. This is the typical sequence. Naomi is unlucky because her twin, the evil one, hasn''t changed at all. Tina takes Naomi''s car and money, but she also leaves her with a surprise. She is Naomi''s long-lost niece. Now she has an eleven-year-old who acts thirty to care for, no car, no job, no plan, and nowhere to call home. Knox avoids complicated situations and women who require a lot of his time and attention for good reason. However, the least he can do now that he witnessed Naomi''s life implode in front of his eyes is to assist her in getting out of this pickle. He can finally return to his quiet, isolated existence as soon as she stops making trouble for herself. That is, at least, the intention until actual danger emerges.

Bestselling author Lucy Score returns to Knockemout, Virginia, following fan-favorite Things We Never Got Over with Knox''s brother Nash''s story. Nash Morgan was always known as the good Morgan brother, with a smile and a wink for everyone. But now, this chief of police is recovering from being shot and his Southern charm has been overshadowed by panic attacks and nightmares. He feels like a broody shell of the man he once was. Nash isn''t about to let anyone in his life know he''s struggling. But his new next-door neighbor, smart and sexy Lina, sees his shadows. As a rule, she''s not a fan of physical contact unless she initiates it, but for some reason Nash''s touch is different. He feels it too. The physical connection between them is incendiary, grounding him and making her wonder if exploring it is worth the risk. Too bad Lina''s got secrets of her own, and if Nash finds out the real reason she''s in town, he''ll never forgive her. Besides, she doesn''t do relationships. Ever. A hot, short-term fling with a local cop? Absolutely. Sign her up. A relationship with a man who expects her to plant roots? No freaking way. Once she gets what she''s after, she has no intention of sticking around. But Knockemout has a way of getting under people''s skin. And once Nash decides to make Lina his, he''s not about to be dissuaded...even if it means facing the danger that nearly killed him.

As soon as she gets what she''s after, she has no intention of sticking around. The town of Knockemout has other ideas. Soon she finds herself sucked into small-town life. Dog-sitting.

Primul volum din seria Knockemout Un nou fenomen BookTok Knox, băiatul rău, cu barbă și plin de mușchi, preferă să-și trăiască viața așa cum își savurează cafeaua: singur. Nu suportă drama, nici atunci când îi iese în cale cea mai dramatică apariție: o mireasă fugară, fără niciun ban în buzunar. Naomi nu doar că a fugit de la propria nuntă, ci a sărit imediat în ajutorul surorii ei gemene și s-a dus în Knockemout, un orășel îndepărtat din Virginia, unde conflictele se rezolvă în modul tradițional:… cu pumni și bere. De obicei, în ordinea asta. Dar sora geamănă a lui Naomi nu s-a schimbat deloc. După ce i-a furat mașina și banii, Tina i-a lăsat și un cadou neașteptat: nepoata pe care Naomi n-a știut niciodată că o are. Knox nu vrea să se complice cu o femeie care vine la pachet cu atâtea probleme. Dar cum viața lui Naomi s-a transformat în haos chiar în fața lui, se hotărăște să-i dea o mână de ajutor și apoi să se întoarcă la traiul lui liniștit. Nu și-a imaginat însă că totul o va lua razna. „Povestea lui Knox și Naomi e spectaculoasă, plină de momen-te memorabile. Lucy Score a scris una dintre cele mai bune cărți ale anului!" – Book Addict „Un roman tandru și emoționant despre iubire, prietenie și obsta¬colele pe care ți le scoate în cale viața." – Liber Lady „Lucruri peste care nu putem trece e genul de carte la care continui să te gândești și după ce o termini de citit și începi să rememorezi episoadele ce te-au făcut să râzi, să plângi și să trăiești la intensitate maximă!" – About That Story

Si hay algo que tiene claro, es que no es su tipo. Para nada. Knox prefiere vivir su vida tal y como se toma el café: solo. Pero todo cambia cuando llega a su pueblecito un terremoto llamado Naomi, una novia a la fuga en busca de su gemela, de la que lleva años sin saber nada. Lástima que su hermana le robe el coche y el dinero y la deje a cargo de una sobrina que no sabía que existía. Al ver cómo la vida de Naomi se va al traste, Knox decide hacer lo que mejor se le da: sacar a la gente de apuros. Después, volverá a su rutina solitaria... O ese es el plan. El gran fenómeno del año en BookTok con más de 30 millones de visualizaciones Lucy Score ha vendido más de 6 millones de ejemplares

Why would a professional hockey player fly out here, seduce me, and then vanish again? I can''t believe I fell for a liar. I was an idiot. A blinded-by-lust, hopeful idiot who threw myself into bed with a sexy stranger, invited him to dinner with my entire family, and then woke up alone to a note. I hope you can forgive me for lying. Ha. Like that''s ever going to happen. If Beau French or Evanko or whatever the hell his name is ever shows his hot, bearded face in this town again, I''ll make sure he regrets it. To be fair, I practically threw myself at his crotch. And okay, fine. Getting naked with him was the first time I''d felt anything worth feeling since losing my little sister. It''s almost kinda nice to be fueled by the fires of rage instead of the numbness of grief. But I''m certainly not going to thank him for lying and then sneaking out of my bed like a thief in the midafternoon. Thankfully, I have my older sister''s Christmas wedding to distract me. There''s no way he''d show his face there. Besides, there''s no excuse good enough to make me forgive him.

I''m confused. Do you want me to spy on my fiancé or get naked with you? Both. I thought that was obvious. Revenge. It''s the only thing Ashley can think about after finding her supposed fiancé, Steven, with his tongue down the throat of the worst human being in the history of the world--his colleague, Ice Queen Victoria. Turns out it''s not the only body part he''s betrayed her with. Humiliated and furious, Ashley finds herself being propositioned by security expert and ridiculously sexy Jason Baine. But he''s not just looking to get her into bed. He needs her help taking down Steven and Victoria and rescuing his family''s company before it''s too late. Ashley''s a regular girl, a normal person. She doesn''t dabble in corporate espionage or illicit affairs. At least she didn''t until Jason... But now she''s in too deep and things are getting dangerous.

He didn''t kiss me back like a gentleman. No, Derek Price slammed my back into the front door. A beast off his leash. Emily Stanton''s perfect life just became a disaster. She has a trust fund brother looking for a handout, a father who is more board member than dad, and a mother who thinks she should give up on this whole billionaire CEO thing and meet a man with a pre-nup and a yacht. Oh, and then there''s that misunderstanding with law enforcement witnessed by Miami''s paparazzi. Now her billion-dollar deal is on the line, and there''s a naked man in her bathtub who claims he''s going to make all her problems disappear. Charming--and happy to bend the rules when necessary--Derek Price has made a living polishing the tarnished images of the rich and famous. He''s never lost, and he never takes clients to bed. Until the dazzling Emily. Derek promised her a win and offered up a lifetime supply of orgasms as part of the deal. But if he can''t stop her enemies, he''ll end up losing much more than he bargained for. Author Notes: An enemies-to-allies-to-lovers workplace romcom with a meet-nude, four lady billionaire BFFs, a hero whose many talents include styling hair and picking pockets, the best dang drag queen brunch in Miami, and a shameless romance novelist cameo.

This would be a lot easier if you had a sense of humor. This would be a lot easier if you were a man. John Pierce has plans for these two hundred rundown acres. He sees a farm, a family, a future here. He''s not about to drag someone in on the ground floor. Not before he''s put in the work to turn rubble into a home. But his nosy neighbors have other ideas. Now, he''s saddled with a grad student who was supposed to be a he. But the curvy, opinionated Phoebe is a smart-mouthed woman who seems to do nothing but question his every move. She''s ruining his nice, quiet life. And if she doesn''t finish her thesis and get out of his guest room soon, he''s going to have to scare her off. Phoebe desperately needs this degree and the money it will bring. What she doesn''t need is this stubborn farmer''s attitude and his pathological need to avoid her. She''s trapped in this tiny hippie town, trying every trick in the book to get the stalwart John to open up. Her future is on the line. Her family needs her. And she''s not going to let a stubborn farmer stand in her way. Author''s Note: John and Phoebe''s story is a prequel to the Blue Moon series. It follows the heart-warming, hilarious story of how they met, fell in love, and raised their boys together. But do NOT, I repeat, DO NOT read this book first. Read it sometime after book four. I''m protecting your reader experience here. I promise.

Davis Gates. Naked. Tossing her a handful of orgasms like he was on a lust-themed parade float. Innkeeper Eden has got it all. Well, mostly. She''s cornered the hospitality market in Blue Moon offering visitors a place to stay in her hippie-dippie hometown. Business is booming, she''s close--but not too close--to family, and she''s got her dogs and her friends to keep her company. Unfortunately, she also shares a property line with the crush who broke her teenage heart. Davis spends his days wrestling control of the family winery from his father''s semi-retired hands. He doesn''t have time for things like dating or dealing with his grudge-holding next-door neighbor. Besides, they''re just the latest generation to participate in their families'' fifty-year feud. When the Beautification Committee resorts to an unprecedented--and disastrous--matchmaking scheme, enemies Eden and Davis join forces to take them down. These two frenemies can survive being fake lovers for a few weeks if it means teaching their neighbors all''s not fair in love and war.

Just because I don''t run around with a stupid grin on my face all day every day doesn''t mean I''m grumpy. Ryan Sosa, grumpy former corporate accountant, has had it up to here with surprises. He didn''t see getting fired coming. And he certainly didn''t anticipate flying across the country to the world''s hippie-est, happiest, most annoying town to save his great-uncle from some mysterious emergency. Not only is there actual snow on the ground, it also appears that elves on psychedelics have decked Blue Moon''s halls. But he doesn''t have time to be snarky about the impending Winter Solstice and Multicultural Holiday Celebration--whatever the hell that is. Not when he''s got a farm to save, a free-range sheep that he may or may not have nudged with his stupid microscopic rental car, and some small-town veterinarian telling him she can''t take the animal off his hands. Dr. Sammy Ames has a practice to manage and a fundraising crisis to attend to. She doesn''t have time to deal with a big-city grouch who doesn''t remember being her first kiss ever. Especially not since he wants to dump a sheep named Stan on her. So not happening. No matter how cute--and pantless--Ryan is when he''s drunk. Besides, as soon as he solves his uncle''s problem, he''ll be on the first flight out of Blue Moon, never to return again. It will take a Winter Solstice Miracle or perhaps some matchmaking interference from the Beautification Committee to get these two to see eye-to-eye under the mistletoe...unless he''s the wrong Ryan after all.

Newsflash. You don''t buy me, a$#%^*e. You earn me. The bride is a doll. The groom is the perfect gentleman. But the rest of the wedding party? They''re the stuff of nightmares. Rich? Check. Vapid? Double Check. Entitled? Not enough checks in the world. And the Best Man? More like the Worst Man. But Maid of Honor Franchesca takes her duties seriously. Kidnapped groom? She''s got this. Rude attendees? You just watch her handle them. So a Best Man with a big attitude and an even bigger...checkbook? Yeah, there''s no way she''s going to let that pretentious, judgmental jackhole ruin her best friend''s wedding. No matter how sexy he is. (Well, that''s the plan anyway...) Aiden Kilbourn doesn''t do long-term relationships. He''s busy ruling the business world, and has yet to find a woman he can tolerate for longer than a month, two at the outside, anyway. Conquering the unconquerable is basically his bread and butter. And he hasn''t met a challenge that he can''t win. But Franchesca Baranski? This smart-mouthed girl from Brooklyn may just be his downfall.
